Breaking news: Gates admits he was wrong

[Christa]

Ok, now that I have you attention, some other news about Telecom Lobbying: :evilgrin:



The phone and cable industries that control Internet access for 97 percent of Americans are spending tens of millions of dollars on more than 400 Washington lobbyists. Their mission is to consolidate industry control over the Internet, before the public (and public interest advocates like Free Press) gets a seat at the table.

The FCC needs to hear from you right now, as it crafts a national broadband plan that could make fast, affordable open Internet a reality for everyone.

Don’t let industry lobbyists crowd out the public interest. Speak out. Contact the FCC.

ps..I spent much of yesterday "hide threading" Gates posts... almost missed this important thread. I hope you'll put this in a thread with an honest subject line.

4. Unrec'd for misleading title. However, Verizon is much more efficient than AT&T!

7. K & R

This is important. I suggest you post the same thing with a new title, not because I'm upset about the "bait and switch," but because of those who would unrec a thread because of a little joke.

8. Misleading subject lines = unrec
